Question Response Comments/Notes
1. Should elective abortions be paid for by taxpayer dollars? N* Taxpayers should never be forced to fund elective procedures that violate their deeply held beliefs regarding the sanctity of life.
2. Should all voters be required to show identification before voting? Y* Mandatory Voter ID is a common-sense security measure essential for restoring public trust and ensuring the integrity of our electoral process.
3. Should public schools allow males who identify as females to compete in girls’ sports? N* We must protect the fairness, safety, and competitive opportunities specifically designated for biological female athletes in our schools.
4. Should marijuana be legalized and sold commercially for recreational use? N* Commercial legalization poses significant risks to public safety and community health that outweigh the perceived economic benefits.
5. Should Pennsylvania increase the minimum wage? N* Artificial wage hikes hurt small businesses and drive up costs for families; we should focus on organic economic growth instead.
6. Should schools post curriculum online for review by parents and taxpayers? Y* Transparency is vital. Parents have a fundamental right to know exactly what is being taught to their children in taxpayer-funded classrooms.
7. Should the state gas tax be repealed? Y* Repealing the gas tax provides immediate relief to hardworking families struggling with the high costs of commuting and goods.
8. Should Pennsylvania taxpayers pay for surgical procedures, cross-sex hormones, and puberty blockers for minors wishing to present as the opposite sex? N* Taxpayer funds should not support permanent, life-altering medical interventions for minors; we must protect children from radical ideological agendas.
9. Should increases in state government spending be limited to the rate of inflation plus population growth? Y* Government must live within its means, just like every Pennsylvania family, to prevent reckless spending and future tax hikes.
10. Should Pennsylvania opt in to the federal tax credit program under the Educational Choice for Children Act? Y* I fully support expanding educational choice, allowing parents to direct their children’s education to the environment that fits them best.
